You are going away
Love will be for you the smile of another,
And you will forget me.
I want to hate you but it isn’t your fault.
Yet you ought to know.
That after you I will be haunted by your memory,
I will live with my tears, my empty arms and a joyless heart
With you, I learned to laugh but my happiness depended on you.
After you I am only a shadow of my former self.
Even if I go on with life,
And one day find another.
Even if I pledge to stay with him
I will only be able to give him affection
Not my love.
After you I will be haunted by your memory,
I will live with my tears, my empty arms and a joyless heart
With you, I learned to laugh but my happiness depended on you.
After you I am only a shadow of my former self.
